Hagumi Hanamoto has just moved to Tokyo to attend an art college. She is a genius painter but an extremely shy girl. One day in April, Yuta Takemoto, a junior majoring in architecture, spots Hagumi near a pond within the campus and instantly falls in love with her. She turns out to be the assistant professor Mr. Hanamoto's second cousin.
A few days later, Yuta's college hosts an art exhibition contest. The winning painting was a dynamic piece of work by Hagumi. Yuta's friend Shinobu Morita, a sculpture major, had been winning the contest every year. He takes one look at the painting and runs off. Yuta runs after him and arrives at Mr. Hanamoto's office. Shinobu finds Hagumi there and hugs her out of the blue. "It's been a while since I saw a painting that grasped my heart like that" he says. "I like your work too" she replies. Yuta is shocked to see the bond between the two. There's also Yuta's friend, Ayumi Yamada, who has a crush on classmate Takumi Mayama. But Takumi has fallen in love with Rika Harada, a designer who he works for part time.
